Super Macro will not work in "auto" mode. If you put it in "P" mode\015\012(and possibly the other manual modes) and then press the "macro"\015\012(little flower looking think) button to the left of the lens under "MF"\015\012(manual focus).

When we take pix w/ my Dad's EASYSHARE DX6490 Digital Camera, there's a huge delay between taking shots. Is there a way to speed up the time it takes after he shoots a pix before he can take another?

You can go into the setup menu and make the pictures smaller. They won't be as clear if you blow them up but, for most pictures, they should be fine. Use some trial and error.Also, check the refresh rate on the manufacturers website. They mi ...

I have a Sony Cyber-shot 6.0 mega pixels camera which says there is no file in the folder and won't allow me to take any pictures to download to my computer. When I do get a pix on the camera, the computer says it won't download and try again or skip. The pix is deleted off the camera as soon as I take it. What's going on? Please help me Thanks Diane

Fujifilm finepix s5000 black screen...it started in dec 2009 when I was taking pix inside and everything looked washed out. I could only take pix outside, but a few days ago it went completely black. It turns on but I cannot see through the eye piece and the lcd screen is black as well. Any ideas? I have already called fuji and they said I can send it in for evaluation and to see what it would cost to repair. :-(

Hi,\015\012You are problem is due to defective CCD sensor in your camera . Sensor is defective thats why you have black screen . To solve this problem you need to replace CCD sensor . It will cost you around $100.\015\012\015\012Hop ...

Disney Pix Micro digital won't take pictures at all. Took one and now won't work. Will take pictures only when connected to computer, but I must click the "Take Picture" button on the computer. The one on the camera does nothing but turn it on and off. The green light on the front blinks, but count of pictures does not reflect a photo being taken.

I hav an olypus 500 and I hav bn trying to take shadow pix in the dark. When I press the buton to take the picture it takes while to actually click. Watts the problem? And how can I fix it? Also, my pictures are looking blue

In the dark, it's difficult for the camera to focus on anything. You need to press the shutter button half-way and wait for the "beep" signaling that focus has been locked (you may need to use a flashlight temporarily to assist the camera) and then, ...

It seems the only way I can get in-focus pix is to use the flash. there are situations where I do not want to use the flash-IE:at an aquarium where I am taking pix thru glass, or low light situations.

790SW Problems You mentioned you are on your third one. So do you just keep sending them back to Olympus with the receipt and they keep sending you new ones? Is the battery charger supposed to blink when it is charging? I was snorkeling with mine when it seized up and wouldn't work anymore. I was turning it on and off so that I could save battery power. I guess something got stuck in there. Then it would let me view pix, but not take pix. Then it said the battery cover was open, when it wasn't.

My camera is doing the same thing... i will let me view pix but not take them =( loved the camera took it to maui and even went cliff diving with it.. worked fine until one day i took it snorkeling and a little water got in. worked for a while after ...

Camera FX35 was working fine. In middle of taking pix in Oxford, screen suddenly refused to come back on, although optical viewfinder works and on screen viewing of taken shots works OK.
Is there a power-saving feature I accidently turned on? Only have the simplified manual with me and am new to the camera. Tried my spare battery but same results. I can continue to take shots via the viewfinder and shots seem to work, but I really want the screen back -

This camera is like 10 years old and from a manufacturer that could easily be considered less then reputable as far as digital camera's go. I recommend you do yourself a huge favor and replace the camera as for about 60$ you could get a new camera f ...
